From "the end" to the final file
Finishing writing is not finishing the book. Before publication comes developmental editing, copyediting, verification of front matter, and preparation of the formats required by the platform.
A simple checklist
- Stabilize the content: verify chapter order, transitions and conclusion.
- Proofread the manuscript: separate narrative, stylistic and spelling corrections.
- Check consistency: names, dates, places, chronology and chapter titles.
- Prepare the presentation: standardize titles, paragraphs and required pages.
- Export and review: always open the final file on multiple screens before publishing.
Important: Plumence helps prepare the manuscript. The technical rules, pricing and conditions of each distributor may change; always verify their official guidelines before publishing.
Stay responsible for your book
AI assistance can speed up proofreading and formatting, but editorial choices, content rights and file validation remain the author's responsibility.
